Genealogy of Grace: Rahab

Matthew’s Gospel begins with a genealogy that spans all the way from Abraham to Jesus. It’s a long, tedious list of men’s names, but among them there are five women: Tamar, Rahab, Ruth, Bathsheba, and Mary. For the season of Advent, we will study their stories and their faith. Each of them played a part in making Jesus known to the world. God has now grafted each of us into the “Genealogy of Grace.” How do we make the love of Jesus known?
